"It seems like the more people I talk to, the more I realize just how good of an engineering program LSSU has. I appreciate your classes, your ability to make learning an enjoyable experience, and the hands-on attitude of LSSU as a whole. I am very glad I chose LSSU."

Paul Weber , Ph.D.

"I enjoy teaching at Lake Superior State University because I have a passion for teaching students on an individual level. As a small university, LSSU provides the perfect environment to allow personal interaction with students due to small class sizes and family atmosphere. This is further accentuated in the engineering curriculum where multiple laboratory opportunities abound. My favorite course is Microcontroller Systems where teams of students learn how to design and then implement a practical project such as a home alarm system or small mobile robotic system."

"Lake Superior State is the only robotics program of its kind in the country. I can work up any research or senior project idea with a professor or my advisor. I studied for a year in Japan through LSSU's connection with the Japan Center for Michigan Universities, and became fluent in Japanese. A Japanese company called Fanuc makes most of the robots in our lab. I'd like to roll my senior research project into a career with Fanuc that bridges the two countries and cultures."
